In partnership with Sensory Days Dallas, a Quiet Area with sensory-friendly activities will be available at all family events.
All ticket sales directly support the Blackland Prairie Raptor Center. As a small, self-sustaining nonprofit, events like this - and the generosity of friends like you - help us care for our raptors, protect the Blackland Prairie, and offer educational programs for families. If you’d like to support our work even further, we’d be truly grateful for any donation at bpraptorcenter.org/donate.
A Note About Weather:
Because this is an outdoor experience, the event may be postponed if we’re experiencing heavy rain or lightning at the scheduled time. If that happens, you’ll be able to join us on the new date or use your ticket for a future First Saturday event. If neither option works, please consider your ticket a donation to BPRC, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (Federal Tax ID: 20-1305421). Your support means so much.
When placing your order, please be sure to use a valid email address - we’ll send any updates or changes straight to your inbox.
